eadauto Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Hi, I have noted that when I send images to plugins like denoise or sharpen from topaz, the efficiency decreases if I compare it to when I open the file directly. This makes me wonder what format, bit depth, is sent to the plugins and if it can be changed. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rostron Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Format usually refers to the way the image is stored on disk and, as such, is not relevant here. Photo will pass on the image to a plugin in the current bit depth. Some plugins will not accept 16-bit images, but I believe the Topaz ones do. I have seen reports that, like you say, the Topaz AI plugins do not perform effectively in Photo. I have not compared them myself (perhaps I ought). Topaz has commented that its plugins are not guaranteed to work in Affinity. Mostly they do so.
